The Pro’s Secret to Beating the Wind.

Grab your driver! That’s right. Hit your driver. It is an unexpectedly simple shot if you commit yourself. Position the ball slightly back in your stance, choke up a little bit for control, and make a swing with good tempo. The ball will fly low because you are hitting it off of the ground and fade due to the low loft of the driver.

Practice this some on the driving range first to show yourself that you can do it, but if you find yourself facing this shot, give it a try. You will be surprised at how easy it is to hit.
